Lacrimosa is 200 years old and a teenage vampire from Terry Pratchett's discworld novels. She behaves rebellious, quarrelsome and grumpy. Lacrimosa likes to torture cats and to be brutal to everybody she meets. And she uses a rash of black mascara.
All in all she is unsympathetic over head and ears but sometimes this characters are the most interesting.

Caribbean Holiday is spun in special technique called corespun. It means that the fibres are spun around a commercial thread at an angle of 90°. This technique needs a lot of fibre but the looks quite beautiful and extraordinary.

Caribbean Holiday is my newest creation and will be in the shop this evening or maybe tomorrow morning.
